Synopsis
A witty, satirical novel about a man who finds that the most ordinary life can become surprisingly adventurous.
A Long Island routine is upended by a chance trip to Paris, a mischievous pig, and a circle of irresistible friends.
Set against a backdrop of clubs, gardens, and cosmopolitan flirtations, the story follows a modest man as he navigates friendships, invitations, and unexpected entanglements with charm and dry humor. The tone stays bright and observant, mixing light irony with human warmth.What you’ll experience
- Sharply drawn dialogue and gently humorous scenes about a gentleman’s misadventures in Paris and back home
- Playful social satire of early 20th-century society, etiquette, and manners
- A portrait of friendship, temptation, and the pull of new experiences
- Quick, engaging chapters with a mix of travel, wit, and domestic curiosity
